Hanakin — Restaurant in Osaka

We came across this restaurant while looking for some food near our hotel on Google Maps. The restaurant is a small, but has a very nice vibe; dim lighting and some old hits playing in the background. The chef/owner was super friendly and willing to explain the dishes to us. Amazing restaurant with delicious Italian cuisine where the food is made in front of you. Pasta and drinks were well-received. The tiramisu we ordered was made fresh and our favorite part of the meal. The chef was also very willing to help us with some questions about the local market’s business hours. Overall a highly enjoyable experience that is truly worth a...

Stumbled upon this place and found it to be a charming, intimate location. Me and my wife, had an appetizer of bruschetta, 3x drinks, carbonara, and the bolognese. Food was simply delicious.

Watching the owner/chef do all the work (prep/cook/make drinks/bus tables) while tending to all customers was VERY impressive.

Food was exquisite and being able to sit down in peace amidst a hustling and bustling city was quite refreshing. My only regret is I should have ordered more variety of dishes. I would come again and HIGHLY recommend this place...

Came across this place by accident, it comes up as Oro Di Fiore on Google maps, but the Japanese name is Hanakin. The chef/owner is fantastic and genuinely passionate about what he does. We watched him cook all the meals from scratch and they were delicious! My son said his risotto was the best he had ever eaten and he’s been to Italy twice. I highly recommend dining here if you want great food and service away from the busy tourist traps. The red wine was also a stand out, especially for Japan. We’ll be back next time...
